EDUCATION: Nobel Classroom

In this month of late-night calls from Stockholm, you may want to check out the new features at the Nobel Foundation's e-Museum. Besides a rundown on every laureate since the prizes were first bestowed in 1901, the site now offers introductory educational resources such as a primer on the structure of matter, a virtual biochemistry lab, and whimsical learning games. Also check out timely articles by past winners, such as 1989 chemistry laureate Sidney Altman's take on the RNA world concept.
